British humor is dry. It's up to the individual as to whether or not it's funny.

You obviously never saw Benny Hill! John Cleese is a riot! Your sense of humor may include the Brits, that's all.

They have a very sardonic sense of humor that I enjoy when it is done well - I do not like Benny Hill.

We are, but we don't make slap in the face comedy which your average 5 year old would understand and call it primetime TV.
